Profile:

Playing only one Test the Indian born, Devonshire raised Emmett came to Gloucestershire after a spell with the MCC ground staff. Originally selected as a slow left-arm bowler, it soon became clear he was a talented opening batsman, with rapid footwork, quick reflexes and excellent timing. Like many small men he was a superb hooker, and was strong off his legs. His intent was always aggressive, and his style entertaining. He lost what might have been his best years to World War two, where he served with the Artillery, He captained Gloucestershire for four seasons, increasingly hampered by arthritis in the field. A stern disciplinarian as a captain his best year was 1956 when Gloucester finished 3rd in the championship. He was called into the England team to face the mighty Australian side of 1948, after Hutton was dropped (Dave Liverman, 1998).
